Area of Science:
- Audiology
- Neuroscience
- Otolaryngology
Background:
- Increasing prevalence of adults with persistent hearing complaints and normal audiometric results.
- Need to differentiate between non-auditory and auditory system-related causes of hearing difficulties.
- Patients seek audiological follow-up to understand their subjective hearing problems.
